So I saw my therapist today, one Dr. Forstoefel. He looks like John Noble of Lord of the Rings and Fringe fame. This is counterproductive for me, considering that I find John Noble strangely fascinating. But I have this thing for mad scientists, as [livejournal.com profile] dr_nebula is well aware. So...

He has finally finally finally changed my meds. I've been taken off the zombie meds that have crippled my writing muscles. I am now on Cymbalta. He asked me about any manic states I may have experienced in the past few years. Although few and far between, I have experienced them. So I told him about them. He seems to think I may be on the depressed side of bi-polar, so he's trying me on Lamictal as well. And he gave me Seroquel to help me sleep. We'll see how that works tonight.

All in all, I like this doc. He's soft-spoken and listens. And it doesn't hurt that he looks like Walter from Fringe. Not one bit. What can I say? I'm strange.

Glad to meet another person equally fascinated by the magnetic John Noble.

I need a Fringe icon or two.

That is truly one of the best doctors to have. I have decided I either want House or Walter Bishop as my doctor.

I would rather have Walter than Gregory, but I wouldn't complain with either one! ;)

ARE YOU INSANE?? (rhetorical question)

If I went to the ER and saw House was my attending, I'd hobblecrutch myself out into the snow! That guy.. If you come in with a stubbied toe, he'll kill you three times before he cures the exotic disease passed down by your grandmother.

IT MIGHT BE LUPUS YOU PRIIIIICK!

*pantpant* Sorry.. I love that show..

The told you about the side effects of Lamitcal to watch out for yes? They had me on that when they tried to diagnose me as bi-polar. (I'm not bi-polar dammit! My flavor of crazy is borderline!!)

Oh aye. Dr. Denethor isn't certain I'm bi-polar, but he's wanting to be certain my mood is leveled out with the lamictal in the event the cymbalta is too brightening. Whatever, I'm just glad I have somebody who is actually listening to the words that are coming out of my mouth.

I hope it works for you. Having a stable mood is always a nice thing.

Sorry, feeling a little horny tonight, I'm probably going to hop into bed with the first person who propositions me :P

Yes, I thought so. I hope these meds work and I get my writing mojo back. I'm far behind when I least need to be.
